I think most people aren't bothered by the bells, and find them cheerful. There's something about loud noises that makes me nutso and I suspect this is related. As neuroses go, this is okay, as it only keeps me from shopping at certain stores in December.
I do my December shopping online or at Target. Yep. 'Cause everywhere else has the bells. This is a little embarassing to admit. Thank goodness they don't have bells outside the supermarket, or we'd starve in December.
I still think it's cool that you totally jumped on Molly's desire to ring the bell. Do you think her lessening of enthusiasm over the 2 hours of ringing will affect her enthusiasms in the future? If it did, is that good, or bad? (No need to answer; I'm just thinking about it.)
